Hi

I received an ASP.Net project files from another collegue. However when I try opening the .sln file it gives an error message "Unable to get the project file from the web server"

Earlier it was showing a long message however when I selected the work offline option the longer error message stopped and this one appeared

In the IIS I created a virtual directory with this application name, however it doesn't help

Any pointers
Thanks in Advance
 
Open the .webinfo project file for your your project with Notepad. The file name is something like

MyProject.csproj.webinfo (for C#)
or
MyProject.vbproj.webinfo (for VB)

The file will look like this:

<VisualStudioUNCWeb>
<Web URLPath = &quot; />
</VisualStudioUNCWeb>

Check if URLPath is correct. Also, make sure that the virtual directory is pointing to the right physical directory, where you project file resides.
